Lay Sod over Regraded Area

other ones around so yes you actually heard Sam right we are going to be laying sod in the snow and here's some of the things that a lot of people don't know it's the best time of the year to lay sod period hands down there is no other time of the year that's better to lay sod then when it's just starting to snow because the sod is completely dormant the sod is sound asleep you don't have to water it you don't have to maintain it you don't have to do anything with this sod and in the springtime what will happen is it'll be it'll get covered in a nice thick layer of snow and then as the spring comes that snow will melt and it'll automatically water your saw for you you still don't have to maintain it you still don't have to do anything here's the drawback to laying sod in the wintertime you can't cut it in so what I'm talking about is that fine edge where the sod meets the existing turf we like to try to leave that as close as we possibly can accounting for settlement so your sod your grades will settle ever so slightly approximately 1/4 to 1/2 an inch we always like to leave it just about that much higher than the sod around it you can't really control that very well this time of the year you can still get the job done you're gonna have better sod results but you're not gonna have you're given up that ability to cut that edge in and make it look like magic when the job is done it just it is what it is so sodding in the winter time absolutely perfectly fine actually I prefer it's better for my customers
